Homemade Pickles
Stephen and I picked a ton of cucumbers from our garden last week and I finally got around to canning them. I've never canned anything before so it was pretty entertaining. I managed to burn four fingers on one hand with boiling water, there was dill and garlic everywhere in our kitchen, and I managed to make the biggest mess. But it was all worth it when I heard the sweet sound of the lids starting to pop.
For information about canning I used the following websites to help me...

ReplyDeleteOh man! I didn't plant any rhubarb this year. I wanted to seriously plant everything and I had to cut it back. I've been very curious about rhubarb though.
DeleteI'm impressed. This looks like quite the feat. I hope the burns weren't too bad. Can't wait for you to try them!!
ReplyDeleteI know, I can't wait till they are ready! I have to wait a whole month!! That is going to be torture...
